Study Summary

Background: Three-fourths of people diagnosed with gastric cancer will die from it. Researchers want to see if giving cancer drugs in a new way can help people live longer and delay the time it takes for the cancer to grow. Objective: To find a better way to treat advanced stomach cancer. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with stomach cancer that has spread throughout their belly. Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood, urine, and heart tests Scans Cancer sample: If they do not have one, they will have a biopsy. Tests of performance of normal activities Dietary assessment Participants will have a laparoscopy. Small cuts are made into their abdomen. A thin camera with a light is inserted. Small instruments are used to take biopsies. This will be repeated during the study to monitor the cancer. During the first laparoscopy, a port with a catheter attached will be put into the abdomen. Participants may also have an endoscopy: A thin tube with a camera is inserted through the mouth and into the stomach. The tube collects samples to monitor the cancer. Participants will get paclitaxel every 3 weeks through the abdominal port and through a small plastic tube in an arm vein. They will also take capecitabine by mouth twice daily for the first 15 days of a 21-day cycle. After participants finish 3 cycles, they will have scans to see how they are doing. They may get another course of therapy. Participants will have visits every 3 weeks during treatment. Then they will have follow-up visits for 5 years. Then they will keep in touch with researchers for the rest of their life.

Primary Outcome

PFS is the amount of time a participant survives without progression of disease after treatment with peritoneal metastases from gastric cancer after repeated intraperitoneal chemotherapeutic infusion (IPC) and systemic paclitaxel administration with concomitant capecitabine therapy. Progression was measured by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guideline (version 1.1). Progression is defined as an increase in peritoneal cancer index (PCI) score of greater than 4 points fro
